[Bug 1315221] [NEW] iwlwifi regularly loses connection/becomes unusable on Intel 7260

 

Public bug reported:

My Intel 7260 network card regularly shows very poor performance and/or
loses its connection entirely.  On several occasions I have been unable
to reestablish an association with the AP without rebooting.  This
occurs even if the laptop is within a few feet of the AP.

I did not have this problem on 12.04 with a quantal backport kernel.

I was asked to report this after commenting on #1305305.
